For this project, I came up with the idea by first thinking about daily tasks that hands perform. One of these would be zipping up a jacket or a shirt. Because I wasn't wearing any clothes with zippers on the day that I started this project, I decided to draw a zipper on a backpack. I used the same techniques that I did on my shaded hand for the value in this drawing however, I didn't use a transparency, I just drew it based off of looking at a picture that I took. My favorite part of this artwork is the folds I made in the backpack. I had never done something like that before and I think the shading made it look really cool. My least favorite part of this project was the empty space. I think I should have shaded in the background a little bit because it looks like it is the same color as the material of the backpack.
